Gender-based violence is largely motivated by toxic social and gender norms and structural inequalities. To dismantle these norms, attitudes, and policies we need to start by treating each human being equally with respect and appreciation.#GBV #FGM #SGBV #ViolenceAgainstWomen

Girls are born perfect. There is no need to mutilate healthy organs and throw them away to be eaten by ants 🐜
They are clean 🧼 with a shower🚿

BOYS/MEN CAN ALSO CRY!
We believe in Gender Equality that does not dwell on the past,our focus is now and the future! To build gender equal communities, we need to address ideologies,myths,beliefs and systems that embrace Inequality and Gender Based Violence

Abuse in relationships isn’t just limited to physical violence. It can include sexual, emotional and verbal abuse, and may involve control of your finances.

Here are some signs to look for.

#COVID19 has significantly contributed to the increase in #GBV in many societies. This study investigates the trends of this violence in Cameroon, Kenya , DRC and South Africa https://t.co/8QOrZN2zaA . @Comen_RDC @GenderLinks @KemeaKenya @CGE_ZA @TonyMwebia @MenEndFGM @GBVnet

Benefits of the internet have been accompanied by harmful concentrations of power, used to control rather than empower citizens. Tuesday's #UbuntuSymposium session asks how #masculinities relate to the digital contexts of the world today Register: https://t.co/UtUMNtgaEW

As a father, how often do you change your child's diaper (nappy)?

We had fun moment, seeing men demonstrating how they care for their children, changing diapers and carrying a baby on a back.
